Community League Highlights

Scott Arthur had the round of his life this week, shooting a brilliant 36 which translated into an equally brilliant 25 net. His round included a birdie on #5, and was a hugh factor in getting the Arthur-Mullen team the low net team score of the week, a low 57. Tarry Bratton also had an unusually good week, firing a gross 45 and a net 28. Lucas Bird, the youngest golfer at 13 in League play, parred two of his last three holes, sank several four to five foot putts, shot a gross 50 and a net 30 and impressed his Opa, Mike, who was standing in for his Oma. Patty Bowling had the low net round for Women and shared the low net for Seniors with Jim Hart; both had rounds of three under par. Scott Arthur had the low gross and the low net for Men, while Mike Bird had the low gross for Seniors with a 39. Kim Jones came in with a 50 which was good enough for low gross Women. Leaders at the end of the week's play: In Team play, father and son Jim and Paul Hart became the first team other than Cam Sheetz and Missy Kneip to hold the top spot, and now have a four point lead over the former leaders, 153 to 149. Jim Hart also jumped over Missy Kneip in the Individual standings with 317 points; Missy is in second with 309 points and Noah Callahan is in third with 293 points. Birdie shooters for the week included the afore mentioned Scott Arthur, and Mike Arvin, Tyler Walton, Kim Jones and Paul Hart. Average gross for the group went up by almost a half a stroke, from 48.8 to 49.2. Still, more than half of the golfers, fifteen of twenty-eight, came in with net scores of par or better.
